About Me

I pretty much have had a love/hate feeling/relationship with every city/town I've ever lived (at least from around teenage years to now)...although the ratio of love:hate has varied from place to place. Here are the ratios: Chicago, IL: 87:13. Carrboro/Chapel Hill, NC: 70:30. Columbia, MO: 62:38. St. Louis, MO: 50:50. Raleigh, NC, Annandale, VA, and Ann Arbor, MI don't count since I was just a kid.

Lots of shows

There are some good shows that will be coming to the area in my last couple of months here in North Carolina. I should probably attend these shows instead of skipping so many as I have in the past, some regrettably.

This week itself will be hectic. Wednesday night at Go! is Four Tet. I think I might have free tickets to see Nas at the Dean Dome on Thursday, but I need to follow up on that. Friday is Six Organs of Admittance at Nightlight followed by KRS-One at the Cradle, which I have a free ticket to. I might attend the Tortoise show (with Beans opening) at the Cradle next Sunday, but it's $14/16. If it's Beans (from Antipop Consortium) and not the post rock band Beans from Vancouver, then I might be more inclined to go.

Other shows I'll probably attend include: Patton Osawlt (from King of Queens), Brian Posehn (from Mr. Show), and Jon Wurster (from Superchunk) on 4-30 at the Cradle (a little standup comedy); the USA is a Monster at Nightlight on 5-3; Ex-Girl at Go! on 5-18; Need New Body and Hella at Go! on 5-30; Acid Mothers Temple at Go! on 6-16 (if I'm still here). There are others I might attend, but these caught my eye at first glance.
